篇一:英语里的迷信说法

These are some crazy and weird superstitions. Feel free to add some more, I know there are so many of them in this world.

世上总有些疯狂又诡异的迷信存在。据我所知,这类迷信数量极其庞大,您也可以自由补充。

01

第一条:

The number 13.

数字“13”

It’s just a number. Yet, people tweak on Friday the 13th. Many airports don’t have a gate #13. (Like the folks at 12A won’t figure it out.) Many hotels don’t have a floor #13.

这只是个数字。但是,每逢13号的礼拜五,人们普遍都会焦虑。很多机场没有13号登机口(好吧,你们真的以为12A登机口的乘客们不会发觉吗?)很多宾馆也没有13楼。

I was always told that the superstition is based on the idea that Judas, the bad disciple, was the 13th man to sit down to the table at The Last Supper. I think a more rational superstition would be to fear bad disciples.

人们告诉我,这个关于数字13的迷信来自叛徒犹大。他是那个坏信徒,是那个在“最后的晚餐”中第13个坐下的人。我觉得与其迷信13,不如迷信“坏信徒会带来厄运”,这样更理智些。

02

第二条: An acorn at the window will keep lightning out. 在窗边挂一只橡果可以防止被闪电击中。 That is some acorn. 唔?真是神奇的橡果啊。 03 第三条:

Spit on a new bat before using it for the first time to make it lucky.

在新球棒上吐口口水,可以保持好运。

Gross. Gross. Gross. In the spring of 2009, in fear of the Swine Flu, high schools all over the country forbade their athletes from shaking hands after the game. Pretty sure “not spitting on the bat” was implied.

好恶心,好恶心,好恶心!在09年春,由于害怕猪流感的传播,全美的高中禁止运动员们在赛后握手。我很肯定他们也同样禁止了往球棒上吐口水这事儿。

And speaking in terms of basic physics, having a lubricated bat makes for less friction, and therefore, slippery balls ? okay, now I’m just out of control.

此外,从基本物理学的角度来讲,一个被口水润滑过的球棒的摩擦力更小,因此击球打滑的几率更大了?好吧,我真是精神病人思维广啊。

04

第四条:

In order to write this article, I had to get a Ph.D. in butterflies?

为了写这篇文章,我得先去拿个蝴蝶研究的博士学位:

The early appearance of butterflies indicates fair weather.

蝴蝶出现得比以往早,预示着天气不错。 If the first butterfly is yellow, it will be sunny weather. 如果第一只蝴蝶是黄色的,那会是晴天。 If the first butterfly is white, it will be rainy summer. 如果第一只蝴蝶是白色的,那会是雨天。 If the first butterfly is white, someone will die. 如果第一只蝴蝶是白色的,会有人去世。 If the first butterfly is red, you will be healthy. 如果第一只蝴蝶是红色的,你会很健康。

If a white butterfly comes, summer follows. 如果飞来了一只白蝴蝶,预示着夏天来了。 If a white butterfly flies from the southwest, expect rain. 如果一只白蝴蝶从西南方向飞来,那就要下雨了。 If butterflies are found hanging from the underside of rails or branches, it’s going to rain. 如果蝴蝶在围栏或树枝的下方飞舞,预示着快下雨了。 If they are on the top of small branches, it will not rain. 如果发现它们在小树枝上方,说明不会下雨。 If the first butterfly is dark, it means thunderstorms. 如果第一只蝴蝶是深色的,雷雨很快要来了。 If the first butterfly is yellow, someone is going to give birth. 如果第一只蝴蝶是黄色的,有人快生孩子了。 If a white butterfly enters your house and flies around you, you will die. 如果一只白蝴蝶进了家里,绕着你不停飞,你将要死去。 If a moth lands on the mother of a newborn, the baby will die. 如果一只蛾子落在新生儿的母亲身上,这个小孩很快便会死去。 If a butterfly flies into your house, someone you know will die. 如果一只蝴蝶飞进你家,你认识的某人将要死去。 If a butterfly flies into your house, someone will get married. 如果一只蝴蝶飞进你家,说明某人要结婚了。 If you capture a butterfly, you will be struck dead. 如果你抓住了一只蝴蝶,你会被车撞死。

If you see a butterfly at night, you will die.

如果你在夜晚见到蝴蝶,便将会死去。

There! Simple, right?

呼,写完了!很“通俗易懂”吧,嗯?

05

第五条:

A cat onboard a ship is considered to bring luck.

如果船上有猫,预示着会有好运。

I used to live on a ship. A cat would have been a real drag. All of those spaces to hide in, poop in, pee in? All of that machinery to get torn to pieces in? And who exactly would have been in charge of cleaning the litter boxes? Litter boxes are never lucky.

我曾经在船上住过。猫绝对是个累赘。船上的角角落落都是它藏身、大小便的地方;甚至连机械装置都被破坏成了一片片的。有谁会愿意负责清理那些垃圾桶?垃圾桶可不是什么吉祥玩意儿。

06

第六条: If three people are photographed together, the one in the middle will die first. 如果三个人一起拍照,中间的那个会最先死掉。 I can’t rationalize it, but this one just gives me the shivers.

我不知道它是真是假,但这条让我毛骨悚然。

07

第七条:

If you stick your hands in your pocket while walking past a graveyard, it will protect your parents.

经过墓地的时候,如果你把双手插在兜里,便能保护你的父母。

Makes me wonder what happens if I turn my pockets inside out. Or, take off my pants and wave my arms around.

我不禁好奇:假如我把里兜翻出来会发生什么?或者,假如我脱掉裤子摇摇手臂,又会发生些啥?

08

第八条:

Never take a broom along when you move. It is bad luck. Throw it out and buy a new one.

搬家的时候不要带走扫帚,它会带来厄运。把它扔了,买个新的。

Isn’t that common sense? A used broom is kind of a nasty thing to box up with the linens. Like packing up used trash cans. A new broom costs like two dollars.

这不是常识吗?用过的扫帚很脏,没法跟亚麻制品放一起啊。这就跟打包带走用过的垃圾桶一样好笑。再说,一把新扫帚只需要两美元。

09

第九条:

If a candle blows out, evil spirits are nearby.

如果蜡烛熄灭,说明附近有邪恶灵魂。

Or, there’s a draft.

或者也可能只是有阵风。 10 第十条: It is bad luck to light three cigarettes with the same match. 用一根火柴点燃3根香烟,会带来厄运。 Yeah it is. And that bad luck is called cancer.

无须复习,只要14天英语四级就能过!!!方法让你喷血!! 怕以后找不到!!!

1、听力,有三种题型,dialogue(十个对话),passage(三个短文),compound dictation(复合式听写,也就是传说中的段子题),第一种每年必考,后两种逐年交替,其中考passage的次数相对较多。

最容易得分的是dialogue和passage,只要记住一个超级技巧即可:对话所述事情总是向不好的方面发展。举几个例子:比如对话里问教授的讲座lecture难不难,记住一定难,老师的作业assignment多不多,一定多,男士发出的邀请,女士会答应吗,永远不会,永远是一个傻哥们发出邀请,邀请的对象是Mary,问我们游泳好吗,滑冰好吗,跳舞好吗,吃饭好吗,Mary的回答永远是,我非常的想去,but不去,四级考了十几年了,Mary从来没有去过,今年照样不会。所以大家记住,只要是对话,必然会发生意外的事情,再举个例子,两个选项,A火车准时,B火车晚点如果你是出题老师,你怎么设置对话,当然是晚点了,准时有什么好说的,总不能两个神经病,或者是两人刚谈恋爱,来到车站,没话找话,男的说,哇,火车准时了,女的说,咿!还真准时了耶!所以准时是不可能的,不好的事情一般都是最后的答案!对于compound dictation,上学期偶运气好没有考这个,但是偶觉得这种题确实比较难,只能竖直耳朵专心听了,即使听不懂,也要根据上下文瞎猜一个,空着肯定没分,瞎猜说不定老师看错了还会给你一分!

我想补充的是,千万不要听历年真题,不管是磁带还是MP3,这些只会让你觉得更烦,偶当时就只是在偶mp3里面存了一些BACK STREET BOY的as long as you love me,I PROMISE YOU 等和Mariah carey的Always Be My Baby等等,当偶困了的时候就在自习室里假寐一会儿,听歌养神!

2、阅读,这是我们应考的重点,阅读题得分的高低直接影响到你是否能过,在这里我针对每种题型谈一谈,㈠事实细节题,据偶的观察,每年必考地方是列举处,即有first,sceond,in addition……的地方,还有举例与打比方的地方,即有as,such ,for instance等出现的地方,有几个应考规律,大家记住,1)选项中照抄或似乎照抄原文的一般不是答案,而同义词替换的是正确答案,

2)选项中表达意义较具体,也就是句子较长的一般不是答案而概括性的,抽象的是答案,

3)选项中有绝对语气词的比如must,never,merely等不是答案而有不十分肯定语气词的是正确答案,比如could,might,possible等。

㈡词义及语义判断题,常考有指代上下问语义功能的名词和一词多义的词组,另外复杂句由于其句子之间的关系复杂,也常成为考查理解能力的一种手段,大家只要记住一个规律即可,那就是选项含义与被考单词在含义上肤浅相近的一般不是答案

㈢推理判断题,有如下几个技巧,

1)若要求对某段内容进行推论,那么就只看题干要求作答的那一段,

2)选项中采用试探性,不十分绝对语气词的比如tend to ,offten等一般是答案,

3)符合常识逻辑的一般是答案,比方说为什么中国比较穷,是因为人口众多,为什么美国人很胖,是因为他们吃的肯德基,麦当劳太多了)。

㈣主旨大意题和观点态度题,这两种相对都比较难,大家的得分都不是很高,所以即使你做的不好也别太介意。这两道题,偶当时是在十分紧迫的情况下,只读了首尾段,然后迅速选择的,其实最后效果还不错,阅读考了二百多分!

3、词汇,对于这种题,当你看到偶的博客以后,回去赶紧扔掉那些什么词

汇串联记忆,星火记忆,黑白记忆,什么家谱式记忆,连环记忆……之类的书吧,或者送人,或者保存好,来年卖给不懂事的大一新生们,要不就拿去垫桌角,方方正正的多好啊!偶认为背单词是一种投入和产出极不成比例的做法,极其愚昧和迷信!偶当年是这样做的,考前两天(一定不要太早,否则还会忘掉),浏览了一下课本后面的四级词组,考试时,只要选项里有出现课本上的单词或词组,那么不要犹豫,选定她!偶还想提醒大家,千万不要在30个词汇题上浪费太多的时间,要知道每个题才0。5分啊,而阅读呢,一个2分,把时间节省出来做阅读吧!偶当时用偶的方法再加上1/4蒙题的概率,最后综合项(包括完形填空)考了一百多分。

4、完形填空题和简短回答题,这两个题也是逐年交替,其中前者出现的机会远远大于后者,如果你遇到的是完形填空题,你应该庆幸,整个四级考试中,数她最简单了,偶当时压根儿就没有看题目一眼,直到考试结束铃响了,偶才开始拿着机读卡瞎蒙,偶当时坐在最后一排,当收卷子的女老师走到偶跟前时,偶还有五道题没有涂卡,偶深情地对她说,天气很热,您也很累了吧,她笑着对偶说,谢谢,还行。在这一瞬间,偶把所有的题都涂完了。大家参加过高考的人都知道,做一个完形填空题花的时间可能超过两道阅读题,但是得分呢?相信大家都心中有数。幸亏四级考试中此题每个才0。5分,即使真正的高手在这个题上也不会超过你五分的,但是花的时间却是你的30倍左右(偶当时做这个题前后大概只用了18秒)。偶一直认为,对于完形填空,命题者的真正意图不是考查你的知识水平,而是考查你是否会合理安排时间!

如果你不幸遇到了简短回答题,说实话,偶也没有好办法,这种题虽说千年难遇一次,但是偶认为这是四级考试中最有水平,最不好应对的题,出题人一定来自天外星球!遇到这种题,如果你有兴趣,那就试一下,如果实在不会做,那么你就认倒霉吧!在大学里有一句话说的好:一生中,谁没有几次踩到大便的时候!

5、写作,偶认为这是最容易应对而且也是最容得分的题!

只需考前花9秒种,即有可能取得9分(满分100分制)以上的好成绩。偶当时只是在开考前熟记了两个比较有难度的经典句型,考试时想办法在在首句和结尾处各用了一个,然后剩余部分,或者自由发挥,或者写几段偶喜欢的英文歌词(注意不是汉语拼音的),或者写一下李阳疯狂英语里的搞笑句子。

你不要怀疑偶的做法,现在偶给大家分析一下此法可行的原因:判卷时,每个老师桌子上都会有一大叠卷子,远远超过你高考时的复习资料,你想,只要是个人,谁会有耐心仔细看那么多的英语文章,再加上一般判卷发生在大夏天,天气闷热,心情烦躁,每天关在小屋里看偶们这些无聊低级的文章,不许上网,不许QQ,不让开MSN,更不可能写博客,好人也会被折磨疯的。所以他们判卷时,一般只看开头和收尾句,再大体看一下字数够不够,有的正在谈恋爱的老师,心情比较好,还会看有没有错误的单词,为了防止这种情况,我提醒大家,我们的目标不是写一篇惊世骇俗的文章,而是尽量在三十分种内不说一句错话,不写一个错单词。一句话,我们的目标就是——没有蛀牙!!再有,写短文时,最好用黑色钢笔,而不要用其他颜色的,特别是圆珠笔,另外,千万要注意书面整齐,据说,判卷老师大都是近世眼,对于黑色他们更为敏感,更习惯。书写也是,越整洁,他看得越清晰,心情就越好,偶们的分也就越高!偶当时做完此题,共用了八分钟,但是偶的写作成绩却是八十分(满分710分制)!

篇三:关于迷信的作文

关于迷信的作文

我们村子里有很多人都迷信鬼神,包括我的爷爷奶奶在内。我经常和他们争吵,我说世界上根本没有鬼,也没有神,那些老人不但不

信,还反对我。

有一次,有些和尚来到我们村,我心想:肯定又是“江湖骗子”,他们来准没好事。那些和尚说:“我们知道你们这里有替死鬼,来找人替他去死。我们这里有一种药材非常珍贵,吃了可以防止鬼来找你,你还可以多活五六十年。”那些老人一听到消息后赶紧到和尚那里去买。那些和尚说:“这个是上好的药材,价值两三千元,可是我们大发慈悲,只卖一百元。”那些老人都去买了,我爷爷也去买了,别人说:“给我一盒。”爷爷说:“我要两盒。”

爷爷买回来,我一看好像是香菇,我说:“是香菇。”爷爷说:“你懂什么?这可是宝贝。”我无话可说,心里想,我一定要找到证据。

不久,有一个八十几岁的老人死了,我心里想:“这些我可找到证据了吧。”我对爷爷说:“这下相信了吧?”爷爷说:“怎么敢肯定,如果他没买那药呢?”于是我去问,知情人说:“买了的。”后来,爷爷虽然无话,但他还是不相信我的话。

科技是一个国家的实力,它可以使弱小的国家,变成世界强国,所以我们不能相信迷信,不能相信什么佛祖,要相信科学。

许多人都因相信迷信,或是骗去了许多钱,或是耽误了病情。我的外婆就是一个生动的例子。我的外婆是一个相信迷信的人。我们全家都规劝了许多次了,叫外婆不要再去拜佛了,可是外婆就是不听。

有一次,外婆她感冒了,我们全家叫外婆到医院看一下,恢复得很快的,可是,外婆她就是不相信我们的话。外婆她每天都要到寺庙里上香、烧纸、拜佛,祈祷自己的病快点好。一个星期过去了,外婆的病不但没有被所谓的“观音菩萨”、“佛祖”给治好了,反而病情加重了。后来,来了一个和尚,他自称自己什么病都会治,而且百治百愈。外婆相信这是佛祖派来的使者,来给她治病的。我们都说这个和尚是骗人的,可外婆又不相信,坚持自己的观点。那和尚每天都给外婆拔火罐、针灸等,可是对外婆的情况没有好转。那个和尚看见外婆的病他治不好,就偷偷地溜了。外婆的病情越来越严重了,最后,在

我们的苦苦劝说下,外婆终于去了医院一趟。不到三天,外婆的病就好了。这一切,让我和外婆深刻地体会到,只有科学,才能使人类掌握自己的命运。

现在,科技正在飞速地发展中。比如:网络,它给我们人类深受益。在电视上,我看到了一个村里的农民们正在着急,原因是他们种了许多橙子,很甜,价格也很实惠,就是他们没有销路。后来村委会想到了一个办法,就是通过网络进行销售。结果意想不到的是,不到三个星期,那里的橙子就全部卖完了,还缺货呢!你看,网络对我们人类贡献大吗?

总而言之,科学利人,迷信害人,让我们热爱科学,认真学习,破除迷信,以我们自己的科学知识来服务人们和全社会吧!

篇四:高中英语作文课的大胆尝试

对传统英语作文课“动刀”

刘义奇

【摘要】英语作文逐渐地格式化,使学生对写作日益淡漠,写作水平急剧下降。写作课堂的独角戏让科任老师也日益陷入尴尬的局面。本文从具体课堂实践中探讨解决这一问题的可行性实效操作方法,让学生对写作恢复兴趣和信心,提高写作水平。

【关键词】英语 写作 学生兴趣 实效

英语作文是高中学生英语综合素质的集中体现,是高考英语的重要组成部分,是整个英语教学的重要环节和难点。英语写作能力日趋重要,然而它却是英语教学中的薄弱环节。我通过广泛咨询,大胆求证,敢于创新对传统英语作文课进行了手术,在解决学生不敢写和不敢想方面取得了一些进步。具体过程如下:

一、严密调研,分析问题存在

近年来通过教学实践,本人发现学生一上作文课就愁眉不展;平时和考试时出现的作文题,一些学生要么无言以对,要么作文写得干巴巴的——仅对提供的重点加以直译。经过我课下与学生交流,以往我们对英语写作侧重于积累词汇,更正语法和句型以及设置开头过程和结尾,逐渐陷入了高考英语作文“八股文体”,忽略了鼓励学生开展想想,丰富作文主题。症结所在:

1,缺乏生活体验,想象空间狭小

2,迷信标准答案这个权威,限制了大脑

3,背多写少,缺乏实践,眼高手低

二、广泛查阅,解决实际问题

1,“长短法”两条腿走路

南京大学外语学院王立飞教授在全国英语写作研究会和武汉大学外语学院联合主办的第三届国际英语写作教学与研究研讨会上说, “写长法”可以让学生有内容可写,愿意写,能够写,写的长,由此扩展外语能力。写长作文技能口使学生增加成就感,又能够增加写作量使学生巩固所学旧知识、增加运用新知识的机会。于是我借鉴此经验,开创英语写作“长短法”。写长放在课下,写一切生活中学生所感兴趣的事情,鼓励学生想写就写,不限字数,尽量多写;不检查这

些写作的错误,对能仔细观察生活,写出生活乐趣的学生大家赞扬。一个学期坚持下来,以前考试老交白卷的学生也能写出个七八句,得个十几分,并且下来还向我抱怨时间不够用,作文还没写完。

写短放在课内。课堂只有四十五分钟。怎么利用好这个有限时间让学生进行无限想象和写作,让我煞费苦心。我使用了范例法:给出一个作文题目和现成的作文,然后让学生在此基础上进行补充,只要言之有理的建议都采纳进来,随之对作文进行重组,最后让学生讨论哪些是不那么重要或者与文章联系不紧密的再舍去。这个过程得到的作文学生满意,我也认为学生真正的进行了一次Brain-Storming。收获是显而易见的,学生在以后的学习生活中敢想敢说了,语言思维逻辑严密了,作文课的成果扩展到了课外。

2,“人人都是写作家,欢迎大家来当家”

充分利用专家对认知心理学和社会结构主义理论的研究成果,我在班里举行了“人人都是写作家,欢迎大家来当家”活动。首先我让学生观看和讨论了辽宁省2011年高考作文“蜡制苹果”,直观地认识迷信权威的害处。然后我反向使用了范例法:上课一开始我让学生仔细审查了作文题目和要求,接下来我用多媒体展示了一篇作文并告诉学生这是一篇失败的作文写法,要求学生阅读后给出自己的看法。让我吃惊的是很多学生提出的建议很好很新颖,语言和思想之丰富远远超出了作文的要求。课上得很成功,学生情绪很高;最后我宣布这是考试作文的 参考答案,学生有的惊讶,有的在沉思,都有所感悟。这样的课进行了一个阶段之后的活动开展的如火如荼,出现了一批优秀作品,还有一些学生在省市的作文竞赛中得了奖。学生们自信了,有实力了当然敢想敢写了。我也再也“骗”不住学生了。

3, 万丈高楼平地起,欢迎大家来“下水”

作文课的新上法,固然收到了大家的欢迎,但是不可避免的产生了一批眼高手低者:分析别人的作文时头头是道,自己写作时搔头跺脚。我通过批改作业,课堂写作发现了问题,默默记下这些学生。课下召集他们去看一位老师打太极拳。看完了问他们,老师打得好吗?——都说好看。我说,请老师教大家一个招数好吗?——都说好。结果一个课外活动下来他们才勉强学会。我让一个学生打太极,一个学生观看。之后我又问打得好看吗?——不好看。我说你们问下这个老师练

迷信英语作文

多长时间了。——十年如一日。我没说什么宣布解散。下节课我在班里说了,写作呀——万丈高楼平地起,欢迎大家来“下水”。学生笑了,尤其是看打拳的学生笑得还有些不好意思。

三,注重反馈,勤加总结

学生有惰性,老师也有。所以我经常提醒自己,并且把学生反馈和自我总结制度化。一周里固定的时间找学生寻求反馈意见,整理总结后在固定时间向学生公布,这样既提醒学生又督促了自己,教学相长,何乐而不为呢!

篇五:英语作文

中秋赏月是中秋佳节传统的庆祝方式。几千年来,中国人常把自己的喜怒哀乐(joy and sorrow)以及分分合合(parting and reunion)同月亮的圆缺(wax and wane)联系起来。夜幕降临之时,大地沐浴在银色的月光中。此时最幸福的事就是全家人团团圆圆共赏美月了。一家人围坐在一起,一边聊天,一边欣赏美食,共享迷人的月色。 自然,这月色会让人想起许多月亮的传说。 那些出门在外回不了家的人则会仰望着明亮的月亮,思念家乡的亲人。

Appreciating the moon is a traditional celebration of the Mid-Autumn Festival. For thousands of years, the Chinese people have related their joy and sorrow, parting and reunion to the changes of the moon as it waxes and wanes. When night falls and the land is bathed in silver moonlight, it is the happiest thing for all family members to get together and appreciate the beautiful moon. Family members sit around, chatting, enjoying tasty food. Together, they enjoy the charming moonlight, which will naturally remind them of beautiful legends about the moon. Those who go outside and can not return home will watch the bright moon and long for their family members at home.

Words:

中秋节 Mid-autumn festival

农历 lunar calendar

粽子是端午节的特色传统美食。粽子通常是用竹叶(bamboo leaves)或苇叶(reed leaves)包以糯米(glutinous rice)再用细线扎好做成的,经过蒸煮数小时后即可食用。粽子的馅儿因地区不同而不同。馅儿可以是甜的,比如枣(dates)、碎黄豆(mashed yellow beans)、花生、栗子等,也可以是咸的,比如猪肉、香肠、蘑菇、咸蛋黄(salted yolk)等。有些粽子只用糯米,只是吃的时候蘸着糖吃。粽子通常包成金字塔形状。包粽子很费时间,一般全家都要参与。当然,随着经济的发展,现在人们完全可以到附近超市买到现成的粽子而不必费劲自己包了。

Zongzi is known as the traditional food unique to Duanwu Festival / Dragon Boat Festival. It is usually made of glutinous rice wrapped in bamboo leaves or reed leaves which are tied with a string. Zongzi is ready for eating after being steamed or boiled for several hours. The fillings vary from region to region. They may be sweet, such as Chinese dates, mashed yellow beans, peanuts or chestnuts, and may be salty including pork, sausages, mushrooms and salted yolk. Some types of Zongzi contain only rice, usually eaten with sugar. Zongzi is usually in the shape of a pyramid.

Zongzi-making is usually a family event with everyone helping out since it is time-consuming. Of course, with the development of economy, people nowadays can afford ready-made Zongzi from a nearby supermarket easily without taking trouble to make it themselves.

中国人过春节有拜年(pay a New Year call / visit)的习俗。通常在新年的钟声刚刚敲响的时候,晚辈(the juniors)会向长辈(the seniors)拜年。拜年时,晚辈会对长辈说一些祝福(blessing)的话,以示对长辈的尊重。同时,长辈也会回以祝福之词,并给晚辈们红包,称作“压岁钱”(lucky money),以求他们健康、幸福和平安。不过,现在通信发达了,除了团聚在一起的一家人之间还使用这种方式拜年外,多数人选择使用电话或短信拜年了。

It is customary for Chinese people to pay a New Year Call on the Spring Festival Day. When the New Year’s bell rings, the juniors will pay a New Year Call to the seniors and send their blessing to show their respect to them. At this time, the seniors will return greetings of blessing to the young and give them gift money put in a red paper envelope, which is called lucky money, expressing a wish of good health, happiness and safety. However, modern people choose to say Happy New Year by making a telephone call or sending a mobile text message since developed communication makes it very easy. Only the family members living together still pay a personal New Year call to each other.

风筝是中国人发明的,距今已有2,000多年的历史。传统的中国风筝上到处可见寓意吉祥的图案(auspicious images),如“福寿双全”、“龙凤呈祥”、“四季平安”等(“happiness and longevity”, “auspicious dragon and phoenix” and “safety throughout the year”)。 这些图案无一不表现着中国人民对美好生活的向往 (aspiration),形成了中国特有的风筝文化,折射出中国人的传统观念、伦理道德和审美情趣(traditional views, ethic system and aesthetic tastes)。山东省潍坊市被誉为“世界风筝之都”,每年四月举办潍坊国际风筝节(International Kite Festival),吸引大批中外风筝爱好者和游人前来观赏、竞技和游览。

Kites were invented by the Chinese people over 2,000 years ago. Auspicious images are everywhere on traditional Chinese kites, such as “happiness and longevity”, “auspicious dragon and phoenix” and “safety throughout the year”. All these images carry Chinese people’s aspiration for beautiful life, forming the unique Chinese kite culture which reflects the traditional views, ethic system and aesthetic tastes. The city of Weifang, Shangdong province, known as “World Capital of Kites”, hosts the Weifang International Kite Festival annually in April, attracting great numbers of Chinese and foreign kite fans and tourists to watch, compete and sightsee.

农历九月九日,为传统的重阳节。在古代,人们认为所有自然现象都能用阴阳理论来解释。数字也不例外。偶数为阴,奇数为阳。农历九月九日,日月并阳,两九相重,故而叫重阳,也叫重九。“九”与“久”谐音,“九九”意味着“久久”。因此,古人认为是个值得庆贺的吉利日子。在古代,民间在重阳有登高避瘟疫的风俗,故重阳节又叫“登高节”。 人们还会佩戴茱萸(cornel)避难消灾。重阳节正是菊花(chrysanthemum)盛开的时节,观赏菊花成了节日的一项重要内容。今天的重阳节,被赋予了新的含义,在1989年,我国把每年的九月九日定为老人节。重阳节成为尊老、爱老、助老的老年人的节日。

The 9th day of the 9th lunar month is the traditional Chongyang Festival, or Double Ninth Festival. In ancient times, people believed that all natural phenomena could be explained by the theory of Yin and Yang. Numbers were of no exception. Even numbers belonged to Yin and odd numbers to Yang. So the number nine in both month and day created the Double Ninth Festival, or Chongyang Festival. As double ninth was pronounced the same as the word to signify "forever", both are "Jiu Jiu," the Chinese ancestors considered it an auspicious day worth celebration. In ancient China, it was a custom to ascend a height to avoid epidemics. Therefore, the Double Ninth Festival is also called "Height Ascending Festival". People also wore cornel to keep away from disasters. The Double Ninth Festival is also a time when chrysanthemum blooms. So enjoying the flourishing chrysanthemum becomes a key activity on this festival. Today, the Double Ninth Day has been given a new meaning. In 1989, the Chinese government decided the 9th day of the 9th lunar month as Seniors' Day. The Double Ninth Festival has become a time to respect, love and help senior citizens.

《中国青年报》在2010年4月进行的一项调查显示,在2072位被调查者中,有83%的人承认写字的时候会遇到“提笔忘字”的情况。中国的学者指出,“提笔忘字”的情况会发生是因为大部分中国人使用的电子设备输入法都是拼音输入法,所有汉字都通过字母来输入。用户输入拼音后,电子设备就会提供一系列与之匹配的汉字供选。所以用户只须识别这些汉字,而根本不需要把它们写出来。

A poll commissioned by the China Youth Daily in April 2010 found that 83 percent of the 2,072 respondents admitted having problems writing characters, forgetting how to write traditional Chinese characters – literally, “take pen, forget character” or character amnesia. Chinese scholars say that character amnesia happens because most Chinese people use electronic input systems based on Pinyin, which translates Chinese characters into the Roman alphabet. The user enters each word using Pinyin, and the device offers a menu of characters. So users only need to recognize the characters and don’t need to write them any more.

过去的七年,中国的房地产业经历了前所未有的高速增长。对于那些月薪较低却渴望在大城市拥有一套属于自己的体面、舒适的栖身之所的人来说,高昂的房价是他们无法承受的负担。鉴于这一情况,政府近来采取了一系列的措施来防止房价过快增长,包括提高利率及增加房产税等。目前,这些措施在部分城市已经取得了初步成效。

In the past seven years, China's real estate industry has developed in a record high speed. For those who earn less but are eager to own a decent and comfortable place of their own in a big city, the high housing price is a heavy burden that they cannot afford.

旅游业是现代发展最快的产业之一。的确,旅游业的增长率通常超过全球经济的增长率。旅游业发展成一个大规模的产业,依靠的是快速廉价的交通工具。例如,国际旅游业发展最快的时期是航空运输业的发展时期。旅游业不仅有利于航空公司、旅馆、餐饮、出租车等行业,而且还有利于许多商业机构,甚至有利于旅游商品的制造业。旅游业不是一个单一性行业,而是由向顾客提供各种服务的许多不同行业所组成的综合性行业。

The tourism has been one of the fastest growing industries in modern times. Indeed, the growth rate of tourism has generally exceeded the growth rate for the worldwide economy. The development of the tourism as s mass industry depends on modern means of rapid and inexpensive transportation. For example, the greatest growth in international tourism has paralleled the growth of air transportation. Tourism benefits not only airlines, hotels, restaurants and taxi drivers, among others, but also many commercial establishments and even the manufacturers of tourist commodities. The tourist industry is not a single entity, but one that consists of many different kinds of enterprises that offer different services to the tourists.

中国文明始于传说中以黄帝和炎帝为首的两个部落。经过几个世纪,到夏朝两个部落逐渐融为一体。因而,中国人往往称自己为“炎黄子孙”或“华夏民族”。

中华民族在人类社会早期便创造了光辉灿烂的文明。指南针、火药、造纸术和活字印刷术的发明对人类进步产生了深远的影响。万里长城、京杭大运河等浩瀚工程也被誉为世界工程史上的奇迹。

Chinese civilization began with the two legendary tribes ruled by Yan Di and Huang Di. After centuries, the two tribes merged into one by the time of the Xia Dynasty. Chinese people, therefore, usually regard themselves as “the descendants of Yan and Huang” or call themselves “Hua Xia People”.

The Chinese nation created a glorious civilization in the early stage of mankind’s history.
